Ingredients

– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 ½ cups warm water (around 110°F or 43°C)

Instructions

Making Garlic Butter Bread Rolls can be a delightful and straightforward process if you follow these steps:

1. Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
3. Combine Mixtures: Add the activated yeast mixture and the melted butter to the flour. Mix until a dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
6. Prepare Garlic Butter: While the dough rises, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
7. Shape Rolls: Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
8. Second Rise: Place the shaped rolls on a greased baking sheet, leaving some space in between. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
9. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) during the second rise.
10. Brush with Garlic Butter: Once the rolls have risen, brush them liberally with the garlic butter mixture.
11. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
12. Finish with More Garlic Butter: After removing the rolls from the oven, immediately brush them again with any remaining garlic butter.

With these steps, you’ll create a batch of incredible Garlic Butter Bread Rolls that are sure to wow your family and friends.
